About this talk
Starting with four basic questions (that you may be surprised to find you can't answer), Jonathan Drori looks at the gaps in our knowledge -- and specifically, what we don't about science that we might think we do.
About Jonathan Drori
Jonathan Drori commissioned the BBC's very first websites, one highlight in a long career devoted to online culture and educational media -- and understanding how we learn.
My Notes
Children get their ideas not from their teachers but from common sense
Be very very careful what you put into that head, because you will never ever get it out
We look for evidence to reinforce our existing models
Some are able to provide that evidence or to create other barriers to understanding
Children are not empty vessels, they have their own theories that we are trying to shift
Poor teaching does more harm than good
